Football Lookalikes, Volume Three: It's Back!!!

I haven't got much else to write about at the moment. So I thought I might relaunch the Lookalikes series. It's been a long time since compiling the last one; and in that time, there have been so many additions.A lot of lookalike pics have yet to be put on here. So I will try and make this a more regular thing if I can.

It features more contributions from fellow users of the Tottenhamhotspurs.tv forum.

So let's kick off with a bumper pack of 20 laughable lookalikes for your mocking pleasure!!

Diego Forlan and Someone Obscure to Anyone but Middle-Aged English People

Only the British readers will get this one ;)

Atletico Madrid striker Diego Forlan seems to look like one of the puppets from the English political satire show Spitting Image, specifically the puppet of former Conservative Party MP—Michael Heseltine.

John Tranny

One from the TottenhamHotspurs.tv Forum (originally posted by KirrieYid).John Terry and a random androgynous person. The likeness is amazing! Could be an alter-ego.Something kinky for his missus...or someone else's...

Harry Red-Droop

Grabby Neville?

Submitted by Football365.co.uk, Gary Neville has been comically (and riskily) placed beside one of the suspects of a £40m gem heist in London back in 2009. The likeness is brilliant, and footballers are suspiciously rich these days so maybe they regularly rob jewellers to supplement their income!

Joking...

The robbers all employed some kind of latex/foam mask or facial detailing from an unsuspecting make-up department. The make-up department in question believed that they were providing facial enhancements for a music video! Smart move I think.

On a side note—One of the men connected with the robbery was arrested in Ilford, near where I live!

Jer-Milkybar Kid

Again, another one which in terms of the lookalike would be exclusive to UK viewers.

Last year, in the UK arm of Nestle (the company who make Milkybars as the jingle suggests) various people gathered to dress up as the famous Milkybar Kid and perform the jingle. Everyone who participated were montaged together (well, I think it was everyone, as some of the singing was terrible!).

There were quite a few of these adverts shown with different montages of performers. In one of last year's adverts, I spotted someone who looked exactly like Jermain Defoe!

The Flaming Fantastic

Ginger Snaps

There is a bit of a backstory to the right-hand picture. It was a design for a Christmas card last year from UK-based supermarket chain Tesco which read, "Santa loves all kids. Even ginger ones!"

Whilst most people (including gingers) would have taken it as tongue-in-cheek humour about viewing ginger-haired people as a separate race, the moany, humourless political-correctness (PC) brigade complained angrily at Tesco for the design and as a result Tesco gave in and subsequently took the card off the shelves.

It was still funny though; and if I had any ginger friends (who weren't "strawberry-blonde")], I'd have got that card for them and they probably would've took it in good humour.

========================================

Well there we go, 20 more doppelgangers from the world of football.

I hope you enjoyed them. Leave a comment if you'd like to see more.

I'm hoping to collect them from all over the web and place them in volumes here for a while :)
